There is Il state court in the south
which evidently does not subscribe to
the doctrine that the authorized inter-
probation of the constitution by the
supreme court Of the United States Is
binding upon the judges In every state.
This court is the Texas court Of ap-
peals. which has just decided that state
taxes upon commercial travellers from
other states are valid, thus running
directly counter 10 the decision OF the
supreme court Of the United states In
the Robbins case. The Texas court
takes the view that decisions OF the
federal supreme court are not binding
upon state courts, II in themselves I'M
warranted assumptions Of constitutional
authority. In other words, the Texas
court assumes TO decide when the
United States supreme court Oyersteps
its authority rs interpreter OF the con-
ltltution. This extraordinary theory
can have but one logical conclusion,
namely, the United States supreme
court has not authority TO cOnstrue the
constitution In the last instaECe-
q conclusion the absurdity OF viii, h
Is OF course manifest. The federal
supreme court Is itself the only bOGy
which Is authorized to determine what
are the limits gifts own authority In inter
preting the constitution, and the state
courts must take their law regarding the
limits OF that courts authority from the
court itself OF course the decision OF
the Texas court cannot affect the rights
OF individuals, even within the state It
self. Any attempt to carry the prinol-
pie of the decision into effect can be
met by an appeal to the United States
courts, which will protect travellers who
are sought to be harrassed by the local
officials. The decision will form an
amusing episode in the history Of our
jurisprudence, but that is all. Ii deter
mines nothing, except that in matters
relating to the fundamental law Of the
country the Texas court is away behind
the age
